Kathy has taught workshops for many guilds and retreats (as well as at the Cotton Patch in Bedford, Nova Scotia), ranging from machine piecing and machine quilting to hand appliqué and hand quilting. Kathy is an organizer for the “The Quilt” project exhibit and auction and her quilts have been exhibited at Alderney Landing, Dartmouth, Comfort and Joy, Halifax, the Mary E. Black Gallery Halifax, the Kennebacasis Valley Quilt Show in Quispamsis, N.B., and the Sussex Vale Quilt Show in Sussex, N.B. and at the Kitchener-Waterloo Quilt Festival.
To see picutres of the workshop projects click on the link to the right under 2007 Retreat workshops. There are pictures there of Michele Gagne's "Flower Graden" quilts and Deb Plestid's "Spider Meadow" to give you an idea of what will be done in class. Janet Bolton's class will include designing your own fabric picture. To see pictures of Janet's work, click on her name under "Our 2007 Teachers" and you will go to her website where you can check out her gallery.
The 2007 Retreat is just 6 weeks away, I hope those of you who are coming are planning to join in our "Fly Swatter" challenge by creating a wonderful patchwork or appliqued (useful!) fly swatter.
The committee has been working hard to bring you another wonderful quilting experience at Pictou Lodge.
See you soon,
Barb
